WINTER SHOW.

JUDGES APPOINTED. HIGH STANDARD OF EXHIBITS. Exhibits in the competitive sections at the forthcoming winter show and exhibition have now been received, and the standard is so high that it is anticipated that the judges will have ia very difficult task to decide the prize-winners. The following judges have been appointed:— Adult cookery: Miss M. Trent. School cookery: Miss Blackmore. Cookery (girls 15 years to 21 years;: Miss Shaw. Home preserves: Miss Wilkie. Art needlework: Mrs Longdin and Miss Trixie Bradley. Needlework (girls under 18): Miss Smith. . , ~. Art handcraft (rugs, etc.): Miss Bridgeman. , Barbola, copper, leather, and marquetry: Mr F. G. Gurnsey. Lampshades: Miss N. Bradley. Home-made toys: Miss Grand. Industrial poster: Mr R. Wallwork. Wines: Mr W. H. Myers. Municipal Electricity Department (special cookery): Miss PowelL The needlework and handcraft sections are judged before the show, and the preserves, home-made wines, fruit, honey, and cookery sections are judged at the show on the day it opens. The handcraft exhibition room promises to be an unqualified success, and the secretary has had to turn away many applicants who wish to exhibit goods, because the space available, though much more than last year, is not nearly adequate for the number of those desiring to exhibit. Everything points to the show beinj? a great success this year, which will mean that not only will encouragement be' given to local manufacturers, but the relief fund will benefit, as 25 per cent, of the profits of the show are to be given to the Metropolitan Relief Association. Quite apart from the exhibits, which this year will be even more interesting than those of past years, the show will provide a number of new and special attractions that will contribute to the interest and entertainment of all who attend. Among these is a monster tug-of-war championship, to be pulled on the evenings of August 5, 12, 16, and 19. Entries for this close on Wednesday, August 2, and the draw will be published in Friday's papers. The annual rabbit show will also be I a feature of the show.
